Peatys Steel City DH Video and Photo Competition

On the day of Peaty's Steel City DH (Saturday 5th March) Freecaster.tv are holding a video contest and Arc'teryx a photo contest.

Video Contest

Freecaster.tv are sponsoring the video contest to demonstrate your camera and editing skills. The challenge is to put together an 1½ minute edit of the day’s race to be shown in the Showroom bar at 9pm the same day for all to see. Its up to you to make your work stand out and give the best impression of the day. All submissions must be submitted by 8:30pm to Will Ockelton, from Freecaster, in the showroom Bar and must be in a format to play on a Mac Laptop. The winner of the Video Contest will get an all expenses paid trip to the Fort William World Cup to join the Freecaster Crew and experience life as a professional cameraman for the weekend. All the best submissions will be featured on the Freecaster.tv website.

Photo Contest

The photo contest is being sponsored by Arc’teryx and is your chance to showcase your mountain bike shooting skills. You need to submit your 3 best shots of the day in JPG format also by 8:30pm to Will Ockelton in the Showroom Bar. They will all be shown alongside the video submissions in the bar on the big screen. The prize is an Arcteryx jacket worth hundreds of pounds to keep you warm and dry up on the hill next time you’re shooting. All the best submissions will be featured on Freecaster and future promotion of the Steel City Downhill.

The judges for the contests read like a who’s who of mountain biking. The video contest will be judged by Steve Peat, Alex Rankin, Rob Warner, and Will Ockelton.The Photo contest will be judged by Dirt Magazine Photographer Grant Robinson and Art Director Jon Gregory, two men who know a good photo. If your work is good enough, there is a good chance it will end up in the magazine.
